Structural Equation Modeling in Information Systems Research Using Partial Least Squares
نویسندگان
چکیده
Empirical studies that use structural equation modeling (SEM) are widespread in information systems research. During the last few years, the component-based approach partial least squares (PLS) for testing structural models has become increasingly popular. At the same time, this approach’s limitations have become a greater concern. Some researchers even suggest using alternative approaches that are considered superior to PLS.

Consistent Partial Least Squares Path Modeling
This paper resumes the discussion in information systems research on the use of partial least squares (PLS) path modeling and shows that the inconsistency of PLS path coefficient estimates in the case of reflective measurement can have adverse consequences for hypothesis testing. To remedy this, the study introduces a vital extension of PLS: consistent PLS (PLSc). PLSc provides a correction for...
متن کاملModel Selection in Information Systems Research Using Partial Least Squares Based Structural Equation Modeling
Partial Least Squares (PLS) based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) has become increasingly popular in Management Information Systems (MIS) research to model complex relationships and to make valid inferences from the restricted sample to the larger population. Given the larger goal of creating generalizable theories in MIS research, we argue that the lack of model selection criteria in PLS th...
متن کاملThe Use of Partial Least Squares Path Modeling in International Marketing
The advent of structural equation modeling (SEM) with latent variables has changed the nature of research in international marketing and management. Researchers acknowledge the possibilities of distinguishing between measurement and structural models and explicitly taking measurement error into account. As Gefen, Straub, and Boudreau (2000, p. 6) point out, ‘‘SEM has become de rigueur in valida...
